Reseña del libro "Casino Crazy (en Inglés)"

Casino Crazy Storyline (Time period is current): Empires are seldom built by just hard work, especially in the casino business. Mark Chandler is from the tough mining town of Bisbee, AZ. He works in hotels while attending Arizona State University and develops an interest in a hospitality management career. So he transfers to UNLV & works in various positions in Las Vegas casino properties while completing his education and accomplishing a Masteres Degree in Hospitality Management. He meets Marcy Silver while she's working at The Luxor & he is at Mandalay Bay. She's married to Michael who is Assistant District Attorney but that doesn't stop Mark. A love affair blossoms and she divorces Michael Silver and marries Mark who is chasing his dream with a partner, Brent Winchester, in building Crazy Vida Casino in Primm, NV. Brent & Mark meet at UNLV and both continued to work in Vegas where they talked some of the casino heavy financial hitters to back them in their small Primm casino near Vegas. The venture is successful, but the partners have a falling out. They split up and sell the casino. They start up two casino companies and build other properties. They compete in every way and bad blood forms between them as their fortunes grow.Mark, while in Europe to raise financing for casino development, meets an older gentleman from Sicily, Pietro Spinelli, who turns out to be his great uncle. Pietro provides backing of loan guarantees for consortium of banks through some Luxemburg Trusts he and associates use to invest their illegal gains in legal enterprises. He funds Viva Gaming with capital sources funding to build resort casinos in and other locations. The Viva Gaming empire grows as does Tandem Entertainment the group Bent Winchester puts together.Viva forms a joint venture relationship with Vince Parnotti, Parnotti Construction, to build multiple casino properties and spin them off to separate operating company.Brent Winchester makes a run at acquiring Viva Gaming through his corporation Tandem Entertainment Corp. (TDC). Marcy's mom dies while Mark is in Europe and it's the last straw for her. She separates and Brent sees an opportunity for a hostile takeover with Marcy on his side if she divorces Mark and has half of the founders stock in Viva Gaming. She waffles then decides against it. Marcy has two children from her former marriage and her daughter, Maura is drugged, kidnapped and raped. Mark uses his Sicilian connections to solve the problem. Winchester's creates a situation to cause a divorce between the Chandler's but it backfires & brings Marcy and Mark closer. The son, Marshall, follows a career path in Viva Gaming until he is recruited by the Camorra (gangsters from Napoli) in retribution against the Sicilian Mafia. His drug use and sexual addiction almost bring down the Viva Gaming Empire.Mar's enemies have a way of disappearing and his dependence on his Sicilian relations may come back to destroy him. He discovers that while bloodline is important money runs deeper. This is a book of fiction but some of the situations are virtual reality. Casino empires are about connections more than luck or hard work. There's an old Sicilian proverb - "Non si può avere carne senza osso" - "You can't have meat without the bone." This book is about having both but paying the price in a world of Casino Crazy.
